摘要

We investigate the effectiveness of providing prospective versus retrospective information on local climate change to promote pro-environmental behavior and support for green policies. A randomized experiment on a representative sample of American adults finds that providing prospective local climate change information is most effective at increasing pro-environmental actions and policy support, regardless of partisanship. The impact of this information provision increases when individuals feel responsible for addressing climate change, have young children, and trust the central government. Prospective information on local climate change can thus contribute to promoting the vast support for the necessary actions to address the climate crisis.
